1) Canvas is a new tool I’ve never heard of
before. It’s a very clear and straight forward tool for teachers and students
to hand in & grade assignments. It’s very user-friendly and easy to get
into.
Twitter on the other hand is a total nightmare.
Since there is a word limit to your ‘tweets’ and it’s confusing whether
something is public or private. I’ve read cases of famous celebrities or
politicians leaving embarrassing tweets thinking the message was private. But I
can see the appeal for celebrities because the popular they are the more
followers they have. For the average user, rather than using it to connect with
friends. I feel it’s more for keeping track with celebrities. I wish it was
more user-friendly.
Pinterest was user friendly, but I didn’t know
the concept of boards and pinning something until this class. For a newcomer,
it might be easier to get into if you have someone to teach you. It’s a very
convenient media storing platform Blogger was new for me, but because I already
have a gmail acount, I think it would take courage to start blogging on your
passions and interest in public. I say this because apparently my sister saw my
blog because she got an update email, even though I didn't send her anything!
2) I sometimes see 'tumblr' on the internet but
I don't know what it is. At first I thought it was the Starbucks tumbler or had
something to do with something tumbling. If there are any other popular tools I
would like to find out more!.
